Could you please tell me what is this agenda widget ?

I do not like the AOSP one, and would prefer a 4 x 1 like this one.

Thank you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Give Jeremy89632 a shout, as that's his screenshot. He'll be able to tell you.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Did you install both available ota updates in the updater app?

I'm getting pretty good battery life just now, probably better than any eclair rom.

You under clocking during sleep, and whatnot? Also, have you calibrated your battery recently?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Oops. Double, post.

Car home could be edited. If you know the full name of brut.all's maps application (the com.brut.this.that thing) then you should be able to get someone to modify the apk, or I could take a look later.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
thanks pulser

Thanks for prompt reply. Yes, has updated both file. Already done calibrate 2 days ago. But seem not much different. Will do that again tonight.

No, im still running with stock setting. which is 576.not sure about the sleep speed by default, coz im satisfy with the current speed, anyway..what is the recomemded clock speed to configure? i noticed the kernel can up to 748 rite?

Please let me know if you can modified the Car Home setting that i request. Thanks in advanced.

Cheers.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
Well the thing about clocking is every phone is different some can't overclock at all, others can go stupidly high.

What is usually recommended is you use set cpu and as the main profile (first tab) you set min to 352 (or closest) and max to 691

Go to "profiles" tab and set up a profile for sleep/screen off of 352 (or closest, can't remember exact number) max and min.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
Thanks Lenny. Will update the result later. Appreciate that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] samirdesai:
I have seen one strange issue today with this FroydVillain 1.1.1

I can't turn screen off with Power button any more when phone is unlocked.

Only when phone is locked ( pattern on screen) I can turn off screen with power button.

It was working fine till yesterday. So I think this is not ROM issue,I must have changed some setting which cause this issue.

Do any one else have seen this issue ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
try call button+menu+screenLock key to hard reboot.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] samirdesai:
Thanks for suggestion.

Tried to had boot with call button+menu+screenLock key. Did not work :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
try to recall what u hav configured before.. or nandroid restore / reflash.. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marinierb:
That's CalWidget. But you really should try "Android Agenda Widget".
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] leinad:
Thank you marinierb ; I did not even have time to give Jeremy89632 a shout :p
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marinierb:
Comme vous dites en France: Pas de soucis!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ghis1:
Yeah that's "Calwidget", though it looks nice as 4 x 1, the text could be smaller... So I found "Smooth Calendar" as my preference since you can see at least 1 more line compare to Calwidget in 4x1...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] marinierb:
I can see 5 lines with Android Agenda Widget... but this is off topic.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
In my signature, help yourself.

Where are yours?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
haha, if there was no "argument" before this post would make post of the day (for humour) :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xerxesz:
I would love this as well. As the official navigation is not really working in Hungary.... :)

But how do I find the process name??? I can remember I've seen it somewhere but now I cannot find it :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
I think you need to apktool brut.all's file, then check AndroidManifest.xml for the full name. then we apktool the driving panel or car thing, and change the call to "com.google.maps" or whatever, into this new value.

I'm pretty sure that's how it was done before.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah in theory that sounds like it would work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
btw, do your users know you are overclocking the cpu of their hero to 560/580Mhz as the default clock speed without them even maybe wanting to OC?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
576MHz actually. I prefer to keep Turbo enabled and slightly overclock rather than slightly underclock given how the majority of our users overclock anyway. As you can easily see by looking at my kernel source code (such a handy feature) the TURBO table doesn't have the stock 528MHz speed in it, due to how the dividers work. You're welcome to fix that though if you wish to find a work around!

Hey you should quickly download VillainRom 12 and tell the world that kernel is clocked at 652MHz by default!

To answer your question, unlike you, we include /proc/config.gz so anyone who worries about such things are welcome to go and see for themselves and see exactly how we configure the kernel.

Then I make the source code available along with /proc/config.gz so that if they're not happy with that kernel configuration they're welcome to build one for themselves! You should try it sometime, choice is a good thing.

This is pretty weak Feeyo, even by your standards. You don't have a leg to stand on by not releasing your kernel source when asked for it, so you start looking at our ROMs to find things to poke at.

While you're at it, make sure everyone knows (since not everyone reads release notes) that I used the Cyanogen device and vendor trees to build Froyd with. Don't forget to mention I left their version of Power Control in there too because I was too lazy to take their modifications to Power Control and apply them to regular old Power Control.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Feeyo:
Pathetic isnt it when you look into the mirror. This is exactly how you are acting on the Cronos thread. Now hopefully you can look one more time in the mirror and start crying again because of the kernel sources.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Show me one post in your thread where I start looking for niggly things in your ROM and post them as some sort of victory prize and I'll eat my shoes. On webcam.

EDIT: Incidentally, do your users know you're overclocking by default? This post doesn't count for the shoe eating btw, it's not in your thread. ;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
ewe

So VR team, what's on the horizon with froyd? it's a stable rom, nice features, nice touch screen speed fix, nice compass-cpu speed fix. its' really very usable.

is there work going on for more updates? I'm excited about froyo stuff, I swap froyo roms daily LoL, always looking for something inventive fixed or added.

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Well I'm currently trying to figure out why Flashlite won't run. Best I've managed so far is it recognising the plugin but the plugin failing to load one of the libraries. So I've got a caffeine IV on order so I can get busy with a hex editor.

Other than that, various people are looking for workarounds or fixes for the camera etc.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] liljom:
does anyone else get this issue? (GPS and mobile net doesn't work together)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Grindboy:
Hmm might wait for a sense froyo. I'm happy with 2.1 at the mo.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ablivian:
This rom works fine till now. I didn't test everything. but i have chosen for the language "Nederlands" (dutch) and not everything is in dutch.

Is it possible to fix it?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
you will be waiting a very long time, at least until its stable on hero.

2.1 was vanilla only for months on hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] harryjan:
Loving the ROM (think i prefer Launcher PRO to sense tbh)

Only thing thats slightly annoying me is the keyboard, is there a way to get the HTC one ported over?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
you can install the HTC_Ime_mod one.

The stock KB is a very good KB though once it learns how you type and has built the dictionary up.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jankhner:
i decided to try this after using chocolate Eclair, did full wipe and everything looks good. The applications i installed on Choco are now automatically downloaded to Froyd?! That is a nice feature!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vlefevre86:
Nice ROM, as usual :) I'm in love with your ROMs, VR team...

But Froyd doesn't seem to have the modified spareparts from CM6 (360° rotation, UI color modification). Is there anyway to have it back?

I can live without the 360° rotation, but the battery percentage over the icon is really handy...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] top_bunk:
Great ROM!

I was going to ask about the lack of H too, is this a new Froyo feature removing that? Seems a bit weird...

I'll try out a speed test at a later date and find out if it's working.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
I belive Pulser is working on it right now, but if you want to change the kernel by your self you need to extract boot.img and exchange The kernel with the one you want to use. Dont forget the wlan.ko.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] FunkTrooper:
What's the clock speed on this ROM's kernel?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
The kernel in fusion had many bugs that is why we stayed away from it.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] robocik:
I was just testing it to check if the linpack would be better, i belive JIT is not enabled in your kernel... ;) it feels quick anyway so...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jppop:
Same issue.

To ignore a call, you can use the power button (or the return button)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] jankhner:
what are the recommend setCPU settings?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Shakor:
Why are you feeling so attacked?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
JIT is enabled in 2.2 by default. It is there, Fusion has high mflops but it created other bugs, that is why CM6 currently runs at lower mflops as well.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] riemervdzee:
Deving is a hard job, especially if you want things done quickly fast. You might end up a bit cranky cause you had a lack of sleep ;) hehe.

Anyway vilainlads, looks nice. Think I will have it a go to compare it with our build.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yeah I posted that rant pre coffee this morning. hehe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Syn3rgetic:
AFter using for a night, I have only a few issues to report:

1) Only 3G icon. Don't know if I'm on H or 3G...could just be the icon though :)

2) Camera obviously

3) Multitouch browser did not function properly until after a few reboots (not really an issue afterall!)

4) SetCPU is at 747Mhz destroys all battery lol (again, not really an issue since its my fault lol)

5) Linpack results are lower than expected. (still pretty good compared to my 2.1 rom)

All in all, its Froyo! and I like it. Since this will be my last ROM on Hero since I'm moving to the N1 tomorrow, my Hero will retire a Froyo! xD
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
yea, flashlite would be a great addition since flash 10.1 full will never run on our cpu.

ok, googling Caffeine IV brings me coffee jokes it seems. is it a hardware tool/probe for use in phone development or a software tool? I'm intrigued since I'm teaching myself android development on the side of my day job.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
I...I can't tell if you're serious or not...
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
LoL, I'm serious. I don't know what caffeine IV is and I'm honestly curious and am honestly a developer who's teaching himself android stuff on the side (and I have a small app in the market).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
It was a joke. IV = intravenous, like when you go to the hospital they'll put you on a saline drip straight into your vein only in my example it was pure caffeine.

Basically meaning it's gonna be a ***** to figure out and need some serious caffeine intake. Nevermind. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
OH CRAP LoL, I totally missed it LMAO

jeez - now I feel dumb. I figured it was likely some bizarre hardware/software combination!!

agreed - caffeine helps when thinking in hex - and when I have to recognize something in binary, after a while everything just shuts down in my higher brain functions and people find me comatose on my desk.

Cheers
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
If we need caffeine for hex, what would I need for octal etc? :P

Anyway, I hope ninpo and his caffeine drip help :) I won't be about much at the weekend folks btw.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mattbeighton:
Had to go back to 2.1 for now, I use my camera too much to be without. It's OK using camera magic for basics, but Camera360 doesn't preview either, and obviously the barcode scanner doesn't work. Other than that it's cracking, so just waiting on that here really.

Also I got Facebook sync working, but it doesn't load their facebook picture as their contact image, is that a Sense only thing?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbaghban:
Hi all,

today morning (GMT +3:30) i updated to FroydVillain 1.1.1 and also installed OTA update from Villain Update but i have a problem!!

I Cant sync my phone with PC anyway!

when i connect usb cable to phone there is no option to sync with PC. and the only choice is Mass storage!

so, any suggestion?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Hi, this is a limitation of all non-Sense ROMs. We can't have this feature till we are able to add HTC Sense to the ROM.

If you export a csv of your contacts and import into google contacts, you can use that method if required.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbaghban:
and also, This new ROM is very greedy!

battery life is so short!

:(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
really? a lot of us have been saying about how we think the battery life is fantastic.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbaghban:
Thank you, but my damn Outlook 2007 haven't any contact export option to CSV or VCARD or some known format.

damn Microsoft!
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbaghban:
I ran out of battery in 3 hours of internet surfing via 3G and my screen brightness was 50%

By the way this is awesome ROM.

I wanted to donate but Pay-Pal is filtered in my damn country!:(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xerxesz:
However this is an Android related forum....

Go to File, Import and export. Select export to a file, next, select Comma Separated Value, next, select your contacts, next, enter the filename 'mycontactsIexportedfromoutlook2007.csv', next, finish, wait.....wait, check your documents folder.

I did not check if this can be imported into Google.....but I guess so.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Yeah, log into your google account, and get into the contacts thing. You can import from there.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] rbaghban:
Yes, It is working.

Thank you all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] mattbeighton:
Turn off backup to google option, this added another day/day and a half to my battery life
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dkelley:
if my 2003 does, then your 2007 does.

file->Import and Export->Export to a File->Comma Separated Values (Windows)

You do know that "CSV" stands for "Comma Separated Values", right?

EDIT: I should know by now to always read ahead before replying, even if there are only 3 or so more posts...

sorry for dupe
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] xerxesz:
However, this is not directly related to this topic I am always amazed by these values. However I am using the data connection quite a lot (it is always on, GMail synch, Exchange synch 1/hour, reader synch 1/hour, etc) and my Hero is a recovered one with - theoretically - factory battery, but the maximum I could reach (3G off, 2G only) is from the mornig to the evening. Backlight is on minimum, still it takes ~60% at least....:confused:
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yellasrichand:
My phone is not able to sync Twitter contacts though the tweets sync just fine. Is this a known issue or am I the only one having the problem?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] BeelzeM:
Are there any plans for a fix that lets me choose my language for the stock 2.2 keyboard? I love that keyboard but the problem is that my language dictionary together with a lot of other languages isn't there right now.

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] kh9n:
Anyone has idea why the available device storage always keeping reducing after software update from market, even move all applications to sd card?

And it is very weired that I don't got any extra available memory after move apps to sd card.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] faisaliqbal:
Hi, here are couple of issues/bugs I noticed so far. I'm not sure if they're posted previously. I've been following this thread and don't remember em posted though I don't claim to have read every single post.

1) Sometimes when I plug out my headphones, my music player [doubleTwist app] starts playing music at high volume. Usually it happens at very inconvenient locations and times like compute labs and at night :p It doesn't happen every single time and seems highly random.

2) Last night my phone got really slow to the condition of being unusable. I tried to kill some running apps using internal task killer and Linda File Manager's killer but it didn't help [free memory was nearly 40 MB at that time] and I had to reboot the phone. My understanding was that this issue has been fixed in one of the OTAs but probably I'm wrong or the bug still exists.

3) Music player sucks up a lot of battery [I know it has been reported previously] and quite visibly in very short time. However I also listen to some audio books on my phone using this app "Audiobook" and it doesn't seem have any negative effect on the battery. So probably it's some codec issue :confused:

And thanks for the awesome work. I use this as my primary phone and hardly have any issue other than above mentioned ones.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] JonasBom:
Im missing some SpareParts options...like customs color settings and that stuff? Mhm...were can i get this stuff?

Anyone having compatibility issues with bettercut 2.5 on this rom? 1st 2.2 rom I've tried so don't know if its a limitation with bettercut?

(longhold on desktop / add shortcut / bettercut / activity / choose app / *doesn't add shortcut*)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] stoney73:
Good tip;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Yemiol:
LauncherPro works really unstable with this rom. Any serious change, any minor problem, any FC from another app and LauncherPro starts looping with FC's. Reset won't work, restart won't work, only reinstall or nand restore works. It makes this rom completely useless for now. Too bad, for it's quick and nice. :(
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Have you updated launcher pro? It's a third party app, so if there are issues, I am sure the dev would like to hear about them.

www.launcherpro.com
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Yemiol:
Yes, I've upgraded. I also checked it under Villain Rom 12 and there weren't any problems. So my conclusion is that the problems is in FroyoVillain. Actually I'm using LauncherPro with Villain Rom 12 now - everything is working just fine.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Weird. I presume you updated with the 2 OTA Updates, as one of those would fix performance and stability issues (akmd one).
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I also had that dreaded unstoppable loops of FC, on both the latest FroydVillain & the latest VanillaEclair. One temp solution is to disable LauncherPro's dock notification. Try that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] chudlo:
camera magic

May be market don't allow my country download "camera magic". Please give me lnk to download "camera magic" program in PM. I want use cam in my hero -)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
If you install market access, you can access it from the market on your phone.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Yemiol:
Nope. I installed the latest ver.1.1.1 and didn't downloaded any update by OTA.

That may be it! I'm always turning on these dock notifications because they are very useful for me. I'll try without them. Too bad. :( I hope for an another, better version of FroyoVillain soon then.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] pulser_g2:
Try installing the two OTA updates, as one fixes poor performance and lag.

As for the other issue, I wonder if it's a launcher pro issue, since it was reported on another ROM too... I've not used this feature you mention, and I'm not aware of which one you mean.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] vido.ardes:
for those with slowdown issues, do you use setcpu? I've noticed a couple of times, that when my phone wakes up it doesn't clock itself backup until I go in and press the slider in setcpu. I down-clock mine to 160MHz when the screen is off, and although it wakes up no problem, it doesn't go above 160MHz so it is laggy until I got into the program manually. Doesn't happen everytime mind you, maybe once or twice a day?

I'd like to know this too as I want to install a theme. The Spare parts included doesn't have it, the one on the market doesn't have it, so does anyone have an old version that does?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] m4co:
Is it possible to install HTC widgets in Froyo?

I don't mind Eclair but the widgets are nice :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] ImGeneralZod:
HTC’s widgets use the Sense UI. So until there is a port of the Sense UI to Froyo, HTC’s widgets won’t work.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] orangeclanz:
Heard that Desire getting official froyo update from HTC, hope someone will port the Sense Froyo rom to Hero.. :)

I personally dont like it..
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] frottage:
The desire now has its Froyo update and a full port of the Sense UI - does this mean that the job of getting a working version of sense on the Hero became easier and a little closer ?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Hacre:
Not even remotely. It does mean however that getting a working version of Sense on the Nexus One got a lot easier and closer.

The Desire is a 480x800 screen, hi res graphics only throughout the build of Sense -as well as- being a completely different CPU architecture which means none of the libs will work.

Your best hope of working Sense on the Hero is a G1 Froyo+Sense (lol) or a Legend Froyo+Sense.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] frottage:
but apart from that its easy ....

(joke)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dexter.:
I noticed a thing with the camera that I don't remeber reading about.

Was going to take a picture and with no live preview I didn't hit target for a couple of pictures. But after the 3-4 picture live preview started to work, kind of. Real choppy and not very useable... But still.

Love this ROM more and more. I think barcode scanner is the one thing I miss the most.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] Lennyuk:
yes, this is the same for us all, we didn't explain it in full detail as its still not really working. It shows you a preview of about 1 second after the previous picture is taken and it will stick on that until you take your next picture.

I am missing the barcode scanner as well at the moment, didn't think I would. But hopefully someone will have a fix soon :)

I know ninpo is working on it very hard at the moment.
